Charles Mingus - Wednesday Night Prayer Meeting download song

For all his complexities as a human being, Charles Mingus could certainly craft compositions that lifted and energised the human soul in the most dynamic style!

I can sense the influence this had on 21st Century Schizoid Man, especially in the frenetic 3/4 waltz tempo.

Duke Ellington called Mingus the King of the two beat waltz. My question is, who is the amazing sax soloist?

WOLF OF WALL STREET!!!!!!!

Isn't this track wonderful,simply real music !! People who don't like Jazz will never know what they have missed.

Wrong,.. recorded February 4th or 5th, 1959!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Alexis Korner played Mingus on his radio show many years ago and turned a 10 yr old kid on to Mingus for the rest of his life.Thank you Alexis and thank you Charlie.X

I have and treasure this album..

This is probably my favourite Mingus piece. 

..just popped in my head..

Did you all know this was a favorite song of Jerry Garcia's

i'd go to church if it sounded like this

This tune made me a jazz fanatic.

This is the only avangarde jazz that I ever liked
